Unitarian Jihad

I have read, this very day, of a new, frightening face to religious terrorism. Forget Al Qaeda, forget Timothy McVeigh, this new threat is far more serious. It's called Unitarian Jihad, and these people mean business. Follow this link to read more.

The most telling quotes:

Beware! Unless you people shut up and begin acting like grown-ups with brains enough to understand the difference between political belief and personal faith, the Unitarian Jihad will begin a series of terrorist-like actions. We will take over television studios, kidnap so-called commentators and broadcast calm, well-reasoned discussions of the issues of the day. We will not try for "balance" by hiring fruitcakes; we will try for balance by hiring non-ideologues who have carefully thought through the issues.

......

We are Unitarian Jihad, and our motto is: "Sincerity is not enough." We have heard from enough sincere people to last a lifetime already. Just because you believe it's true doesn't make it true. Just because your motives are pure doesn't mean you are not doing harm. Get a dog, or comfort someone in a nursing home, or just feed the birds in the park. Play basketball. Lighten up. The world is not out to get you, except in the sense that the world is out to get everyone.

Why are the media not talking about this? Why have they allowed themselves to be so cowed by the corrosive forces of political correctness to be unwilling to stand up and show Unitarianism for the threat it is?

If this group is not stopped, then we may all soon be over-run by reasonable, calm, intelligent people. We can not have that! The Unitarians must be stopped!
